Product Reviews

A cheap n'cheerful colour laser printer for a small office or shop, print quality is okay although flat colours,although surprisingly vibrant for a colour laser printer, tend to get a bit stripey.
Postscript is supposed to be handled via the printer driver however it's best to post render it first and print as an image for best results. Processing is reasonably quick and there's an option to print just black and white to save on toner.
Toner installation is easy... designed in such a way to make it impossible to install the wrong colour cartidge in the wrong slot. Toner cartridges are a bit on the small side so you'll find them running out quickly on large print-runs. The cartridges supplied with the printer only contain about half so it's advisible to get an extra set with the printer.
A UK power lead was not supplied with our printer, not sure if that was a logistical error at Xerox's end or a complete oversite, however it does take a standard kettle lead and they're not hard to come by.
One word of warning, the print engine tends to lose quality way before it's due to be replaced (it is a consumable part) something that Xerox seem to be aware of and will replace. Also the printer simply stops working when the waste toner cartridge fills-up, there's no visual indicators, to all intents and purposes it simply looks like the printer has failed so before you start ringing Xerox complaining, check that first!
Out of the box it is quick easy to set-up and will happily run in the background, it can be administered via a web interface and there's a handy software utility to access it if it doesn't take to your DHCP server the first time it is switched on.

Spice this up!
